Commentary on Ecclesiastes 7:20

Theological / Devotional

For there is not a just man. Better, “for in respect to man, there is none righteous.” Even the child of God may at times make grievous mistakes, as did Abraham and David, but by the enabling grace of Christ he will obtain victory over them (see 1 John 3:6 ; 5:4).

Sinneth not. See 1 Kings 8:46; Prov. 20:9; Rom. 3:23; 1 John 1:8.
